that ARE actively being used on a daily basis, namely the Mi-8 and An-32. There are no redesignations within the tri-service designation system for these aircraft. How do you propose including/excluding them? On top of that, why not include any known, active X-series aircraft? I don't know of any, but if we are testing a new airframe and it has reached production to the point of being in posession of the USAF and being tested, why not include it? They are in the "system," they are manned, and are on the books. We do lots of research on F-15s and F-16s. Many different airframes are being used for testing (i.e. A-10C, some F-15Ds, etc.) Do those units not count? If so, why? They are actively assigned to operational units and are accounted for in the grand totals of manned aircraft for the USAF. Your definition of "operational" seems misguided too. As far as I know, if a unit has orders to exist and has a commander (usually done in , it is "operational." If it is only a detachment of a larger unit, then it is not operational, even though it may have aircraft. Those aircraft, however, would be assigned to the larger unit. There are many operational units that do not all have the same type of aircraft too, though most are testing or training units. By the way, the list already includes several G and Q-series aircraft and IMHO should also include the YAL-1 and any drones we actively use.
4520:. These Armed Forces report directly to the President as their Commander-in-Chief. The top commanders of the Air Force, such as the General in charge of NORAD, the General in charge of the U.S. Air Force in Europe, and the General in charge of the Pacific Air Force, work directly under the President, and thus they do not work for the Secretary of Defense or the Secretary of the Air Force - except when authority has been delegated by the President to them. The top commanders of the Air Force, mentioned above, are also not under the command of the Chief of Staff of the Air Force or the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. The jobs of these officers, and also of the Secretary of the Air Force and the Secretary of Defense, are to provide the U.S. Air Force with the equipment, personnel, and supplies with which to perform its duties - which are to execute the orders of the President of the United States. 1184:"Headquarters US Air Force (HQ USAF): The senior headquarters of the Air Force, consisting of two major entities: the Secretariat (including the Secretary of the Air Force and the Secretary's principal staff), and the Air Staff, headed by the Chief of Staff, USAF. Major Command (MAJCOM): A major subdivision of the USAF, directly subordinate to Headquarters United States Air Force (HQ USAF). They are assigned a major segment of the Air Force mission and possess the full range of staff functions needed to perform required tasks. Direct Reporting Unit (DRU): A subdivision of the Air Force, directly subordinate to the Chief of Staff. A DRU performs a specialized or restricted mission that does not fit into any of the MAJCOMs. A DRU has many of the same administrative and organizational responsibilities as a MAJCOM." plagarized from 1067:
equal to the Secretary of the Air Forc, thus it's clear that the boxes do not necessarily need to be separate to establish hierarchy. Second, the term "United States Air Force," while not explicitly printed on the chart, is most commonly associated with the uniformed service, not the civilian appartus. On that chart, the uniformed service is represented by the highest ranking uniformed officer, the AF Chief of Staff, and all subordinate commands... all of which are listed below the Secretary of the Air Force. Also, compare the organization for the Air Force Department to the Navy Department. Using your argument that the term for the uniformed service within each department is interchangeable with the name of the department, the Marine Corps could be called the Navy! --

Airmen fight wars while maintaining a seated position -- whether it's behind a desk, behind the wheel of a vehicle, or inside the cockpit of an ass-kickin' killing machine. The term CHairforce does not define Airmen as weak, harmless, pencil-pushing desk jockeys. Everyone knows U.S. Air Force personnel almost single-handedly won the past two U.S. wars. Whether an Airman has four stars on his shoulder or one stripe on his or her sleeve, whether they're a fighter jock, a grease monkey or a Services troop handing out basketballs at the base gym, CHairforce.com will treat all "bluesuiters" with admiration and respect ... until you prove otherwise, in which case you will be taunted and ridiculed.

Force" article should be included in this article. Similar disambiguation pages/links should be created for the Army and Navy service branches and their respective civilian departments (if they don't already exist). The Marine Corps article should be edited include a reference to its position in the Navy Department (if needed) but should not be redirected to the Navy Department page; it would be illogical to think a search for "United States Marine Corps" or a derivative would actually seek "Navy Department." This solution will satisfy all points, and thus I propose that this issue be closed once implemented. --
1160:
staff, and direct reporting units. To refer to one's self as "I am in the Air Force" one does not necessarily need to be a serviceman, you can also be a civilian in the Department of Defense who is assigned to an Air Force Unit. The Air Staff is subordinate to the Chief of Staff of the Air Force and serves primarily as an advisory role to the SecAF, the Joint Chiefs of Staff, and the SecDef/President. De jure, the CSAF has little command authority over troops, but has a large role as far as policy and direction of the Air Force. De facto, the CSAF leads the USAF in conjunction with the SecAF.
1106:
however, they are a component of the Department of the Navy. In short, when one refers to the Air Force or the Army, the distinction is minute and only needs to be clarified in rare cases (the terms are interchangeable). It would be rare for someone to say, "The Air Force wants XYZ," and clarification be needed. In the case of the US Navy and USMC, "Navy" is not so clear-cut. In short, Air Force refers to both the Department of the Air Force as a whole and the US Air Force; rarely does a distinction need to be made. The case of the Navy is a different situation. Anyone else have any thoughts?

tails, into the cargo holds of C-17 Globemaster III transports from Charleston Air Force Base, S.C. The Charleston airlifters delivered the MiGs to the National Air Intelligence Center at Wright-Patterson AFB near Dayton, Ohio. If the NAIC can discover how the Fulcrum works, Air Force pilots might gain an edge if they face the Fulcrum in future combat." In addition, it is no secret that the 6th Special Operations Squadron at Hurlburt Field flies the Mi-8 and An-32. Don't be so hasty in eliminating blocks of text without further research.

removing these planes, I was considering the fact that they are not in active operational usage on much more than a research role. If you would like to provide source material that these planes are in use on more than a research basis, I'd agree that they should be added to the list with citations. Also, in the future, it would be helpful for you to sign your posts on talk pages as its difficult to carry on an intellectual conversation with an anonymous party. Thanks :) --

Air Force via something other than an official site or press release. Had he quoted the External Links discussion instead of calling it linkspam with an agenda, then I would've left it alone. By calling it spam with an agenda, he disregarded those that serve and contribute to the news on the site (making light of some situations during a very serious war). I'm even curious what he thought the agenda was. Anyhow, some people will want to know, hence this post.
4539:(it’s available online for free, for crying out loud…) before making cocksure mumbo-jumbo claims without providing adequate sources. For one, the Secretary of Defense is in the chain of command, of all the military forces, which makes up the Department of Defense (Army, Marine Corps, Navy and Air Force), as he is the “principal assistant to the President in all matters relating to the Department of Defense”. And second, the ”Department of the Air Force” is not a 346:
buy them until the new ones are in effect. As an airman myself there hot and trap a lot of moisture and there actually discontinuing the ones you show in the picture; so at this moment the new designs are unknown and base specific uniforms are in effect and the standerd white logo basic issues are still in effect. Your American tax dollars at work. (This note was added by 70.185.137.99 in the article. I have moved it here where it is more appropriate).
3653:, in my opinion the significance of an airframe or other piece of AF equipment should be based on capability & contribution, not simply the number in the inventory. For example, there may not be a lot of MILSTAR or DSCS III satellites but the contribution of these systems is significant to the AF and other branches. Similarly the number of B-2s, AC-130, et al, may not be high but their effects and contribution to the AF mission are significant.-- 4459:
up their own information warfare orgs. It would be more accurate to state that USAF is a branch that specializes in aerial warfare, but they by no means have an exclusive role here. Both the Navy and Army have huge airpower branches themselves, as well as missile and rocket programs. The introduction is as inaccurate as saying "the Navy is the branch with ships". The introduction sounds more like a press release than an encyclopedia entry.

aircrafts but he knows nothing about it. The only thing I was able to find out is that this item is definitely of american origin (confirmed by the royal air-force museum). So I am going to post the picture here and I hope that someone can help me or knows somebody who can. Maybe you can also redirect me to a better place to post this request....I would appreciate your advice! Thanks in advance!
848:(to which the article redirects; I've put that back) are in fact one and the same thing. I'm certainly open to any facts showing that they are different organizations, but I believe there are one and the same, based on the facts in the (stub) article that I replaced with a redirect (e.g., same logo, same legislation creating them, same office in charge - Secretary of the Air Force). 4543:! It is by statute defined as a ”Military Department”, and the United States Air Force and the Air National Guard are integral parts of it. If this were not the case, then why would every Air Force Instruction start with the phrase ”By Order of the Secretary of the Air Force” or why would it on every piece of official stationary stand ”Department of the Air Force”? 1201:
Force" implicitly includes the Department of the Air Force. The distinction lies only in the difference between the civilian leadership and the de jure entity USAF. It is both right and proper to include the SecAF when talking about the Air Force. I think it is best phrased as the article is now. Add a separate part if you wish for the Dept. of the AF

both men for "systemic issues associated with declining Air Force nuclear mission focus and performance". The forced resignations followed an investigation ordered by Gates into two embarrassing incidents involving nuclear weapons, and were also the culmination of a long-running series of disputes between the Air Force leadership and Gates.
1262:"I'm in the Air Force" can mean either USDAF or USAF. Civilians can use either and still be correct. As stated above, the public generally does not disassociate leadership and an entity, hence "Air Force" is good for either entity. Air Staff is merely the staff of the Chief of Staff of the Air Force and IS a component of the USAF. 3696:
of the three types of heavy bombers operated by the USAF. Whereas the B-1 averages a 53% ready rate, and the B-2 achieved a 26%, the B-52 averages 80% as of 2001." Also, am i the only one who disagrees that the V-22 should remain on this page? There were only 7 of this aircraft with the air force at last census. FYI, there is

hilarious how out of touch with common sense and reality nationalist internet fanboys can be. Go to any source, ask ANYBODY, and they will rightfully say that the USAF is the #1 air force in the world. Americans know it, America's allies know it, and America's enemies know it. But nationalist fanboys apparently don't.

This portion of the article states absolutely no references or sources. It sounds to me like someone who works in a fighter squadron is just blathering on and on about something that happens in his particular squadron.

The fine USAF band program deserves to be mentioned. The Air Force Band began with Glenn Miller in WWII. Today, the USAF has its premier symphonic band based (last I heard) at Bolling Field and a dozen or so subsidiary bands based across the United States and overseas. It also has musical groups that

On 5 June 2008, in a move called "unprecedented" by one Air Force-related journal, Secretary of Defense Robert M. Gates, accepted the resignations of both the Secretary of the Air Force, Michael W. Wynne, and the Chief of Staff of the United States Air Force, Gen. T. Michael Moseley, in effect firing

The listing on of the different MajComs, "Air Force Cyberspace Command" should read "Air Force Cyber Command (Provisional)". Reference for this is a memorandum dated 01 Nov 2006 from CSAF to LtGen Robert Elder, 8AF/CC Titled 'Operational Cyberspace Command "Go Do" Letter'. This memo is available on

The incident is one of
1564:
Some good points. However, there is a history of USAF article, so there's no need to duplicate that here. I'm not sure about a "Culture section" as these kinds of issure are usually covered on the main page in other armed forces article. That doesn't mean some sections couldn't use some cutting back,
1239:
Thinking about this, perhaps the confusion is that for someone to say "I'm in the Air Force", he/she would need to be servicemember (that is, an uniformed officer or enlisted member). By contrast, a civilian, including the SECAF, would say "I work in the Department of the Air Force". I'm not at all
1159:
This entire discussion of USAF vs USDAF is a bit misleading. The US Air Force falls under the Secretary of the Air Force. The only elements of the Department of the Air Force of which I am aware that do NOT fall under the US Air Force are the SecAF's Staff, the Chief of Staff of the Air Force and his
1105:
Yes, but the terms ARE used (in some cases) interchangably. If someone in the Pentagon states, "The Navy wants more money and it's coming out of my budget!" it could mean either the US Navy proper or the Department of the Navy. The Marine Corps is special and would NOT be mistaken as being "the Navy"
1082:
a department under the Department of the Navy (...it's the mens department, or so the joke goes). If you want to refer to the services by Departments under DoD, there is the Air Force, Army, and Navy (no USMC since it falls under the Navy). If you want to refer to our service BRANCHES, then there are
944:
To be more constructive: I'd settle for something (anything) that says "The USAF, as well as X, Y, and Z, are components of the Department of the Air Force", or "Position X, which heads the USAF, reports to the Secretary of the Air Force". Or an organization chart which shows the USAF and the USDAF

By "units", do you mean squadrons? If so, this is true; we have no MiG-29/Su-27 squadrons. However we have a few. "Of the 21 Fulcrums the United States bought, 14 are the frontline Fulcrum C's...from Oct. 20 to Nov. 2, 1997, loadmasters and aerial port experts squeezed two MiGs apiece, sans wings and
298:
F-22 per-unit costs are actually misleadingly inflated. Basically Congress slashed the production amount, greatly increasing the amount of R&D costs attributed to each plane. And again, what is your source for the claim that the F-22 is "much less maneuverable?" Just about everything out there
252:
If they're so amazing, then how come the F22 (the 'top' USAF fighter) lost out to the Eurofighter Typhoon in testing and training exercises? And the ET was being chased by two F15s but managed to out maneuver and lock onto both of them in another exercise? The only advantage the F22 has over the ET

Sure, the fundamentalist bug does not stop at the doors of the Air Force Academy. There are plenty of other news stories that cover the stain throughout the USAF. The Schwartz letter is well past due and it simply telling them to cool their jets on the issue. Why not at least cover his action on the
4458:
Except this is at least partly untrue. Who made USAF the "cyberwarfare branch"? No one. Nothing in the National Security Act of 1947, nor any other recent legislation assigns this role to them. This is a role that USAF has tried to monopolize for itself and failed. The Army and Navy are both setting

bad. I think it could be split into more categories (bombers, fighters, cargo, etc), like its predecessor. In addition, it is missing a large number of aircraft (B-2, C-47T, MC-130W, AC-130H, AC-130U, MC-12, U-28, etc). Most of these were on the previous list and, while pictures aren't available for

Less effective, "right." If the F-22 is less effective than the Eurofighter, then are you saying that the USAF spent countless millions on NOTHING? Why are F-22 exports to America's allies banned by law, if America's allies already have a supposedly superior aircraft in the Eurofighter? I find it

It certainly should be cited, but I concur that the USAF is the most technologically advanced air force. That is not to say they are the "best", but that their technology is superior to others.

I propose that the B-2 be added to the list of aircraft, although they are not used as often as some of the other bombers, they are the most iconic and identifiable bombers ever, and they should not be left off the list. if we have satelites, refueling trucks, and cesna aircraft on this list surely

This article could use more information about the USAF budget, various bases, and its history. Other areas seem overly detailed: Humanitarian Missions, grade structure, uniforms, core values, and vocations. Overall the article seems to focus too much on the culture of the Air Force and not enough

Re: your message on my talk page. Read the chart again. First, you'll notice that the boxes "Undersecretary and Assistant Secretaries of the Air Force" and "Chief of Staff Air Force" are both listed below "Secretary of the Air Force." It would be illogical to assume that either of those posts is

I've actually researched this claim, and again it appears to be another internet myth repeated by Euro fanboys without any actual support. I actually don't dispute the claim that the ET may be better than the F-15, it better be since it's so much newer. That doesn't really matter though, because

I'm not aware of any legal precident on the issue, but the National Security Act of 1947 combined with the 'necessary and proper' clause should be sufficient. The Constitution does expressly charge the government to "...provide for the common defense..." In the 21st century that requires an Air

No objection to the "rule," but it seems arbitrary and not consistent with the system the Air Force actually uses. I'll admit that the MiG-29 and Su-27 aren't "on the books" in any active squadron of which I am aware, but I know for a fact that there are several aircraft with Russian designations

Okay, but your definition of "operational" is a bit misleading. What are you saying? Do aircraft flying CONUS mission only not count? Do they have to fly combat? Do they have to be used only for war support? What about training aircraft? These aircraft are as operational as any other. Even though

While I understand your concerns on this issue, possessing planes for research does not mean that these planes are in operational usage. If every plane the USAF used for research was included, the list would have to include a variety of planes which might make the list unwieldy. I was not hastily

Mikedelsol is technically correct, but to not add some caveats is misleading. The primary point of contention seems to be proper terminology. USAF is led by the Department of the Air Force. As a whole, the public generally does not disassociate an entity from its leadership, hence the term "Air
